Birthday and gifts

So I can't remember if I mentioned this or not, but I threw a yarn party for my birthday!
It was basically a cheap ploy to get more yarn, and guy what peeps? It worked!
Look at how much yarn people brought!

And I found it entertaining that I got two bundles of camo yarn. That's going to be fun to play with. And lots of my favorite, the kind that goes from one color to another and another and so on!

Anyway, in other news, I made up some Super Mario Brothers type things this week, cause this couple at work really likes the games (well, the guy more so than the girl, but I think the girl likes the cute yarn craft).
For Ben's birthday, I made him this green 1 up mushroom.

And then for our birthday dinner (the couple, myself and my roommate), I made them this Piranha Plant in tube, and this red mushroom.

It's been a lot of fun making them. I want to make mushrooms in all kinds of colors, but I also want to be true to what mushrooms there really are. Either way, they are fun to make.
Hopefully I will get to do more yarn bombing today on my bike ride.
